Conan is an Irish name meaning "little wolf" from the element cú meaning "wolf, hound" combined with a diminutive suffix.
My first thoughts when it comes to Conan are foxes (not wolves for some reason), red hair (thanks to O'Brien), and Sherlock Holmes' author Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Actually, if I think on it for a bit, I also remember Conan the Barbarian, created by Robert E. Howard.
Conan feels earthy but fresher than names like Rowan and Ronan as well. Though I quite like Ronan!
